Description

Expected outcomes include improved officer safety, evidence collection, transparency and accountability in law enforcement practices, reduced excessive use of force incidents, and improved community relations and trust. Sworn law enforcement officers and the citizens of leon county are the intended beneficiaries of the project. The bwcs acquired under this award will continue to be utilized as a training tool to improve officer performance, DE-escalation skills, and evidence-gathering techniques. Leon county residents will benefit from the increased transparency and accountability of law enforcement officers using the bwcs, further advancing lcso's efforts to build trust between the community and law enforcement. Specific activities will include the purchase of new equipment and expanding technical support for the additional cameras (e.g., charging, downloading video/audio, etc.). Lcso has developed expanded policies for camera implementation for use in corrections settings, developed training to implement additional bwcs, and developed an evaluation process to ensure successful expansion. The lcso will also meet regularly with the assigned training and technical assistance provider for guidance, evaluation, and implementation of recommended changes.
